I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.

New Collecting Goal: 2010 Topps Pro Debut Yankees
I don't know why, but the more I sit with it, the more I like and want to collect the Yankees base cards from 2010 Topps Pro Debut set. I know that this set got a lot of mixed reactions, but overall, I like it. I love the usage of minor league logos and the fact that these look like 2010 Topps otherwise. I'm not sure if I'll just work to complete the set or perhaps use these for TTM, but for now please let me know if you have any to spare. I have a handful of these already, but I think I'll start from scratch.
I don't know much about this set - if these are considered actual RC's or not. I'm not too worried about it. For now, I'd just like to add some future (hopefully) Yankee cards to my collection.

You know, after looking at these cards, I might just give them a go, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you - I like how they use the minor league logos with the 2010 Topps design. And I don't think they're considered rookie cards because the "official" definition of rookie card is the player's first major league card.
